Bling wheels – the craziest thing I’ve seen so far are Dub’s Pimp Star wheels, which can display a picture of your choice on the wheel, or a slideshow of pictures even! This set of wheels take the whole bling wheel concept the other direction – no spokes at all, nothing! A plain clear view of the massive disc brakes you have.
D’Vinci Forgiato Radurra wheels are made from polycarbonate, and comes in either 1.5 inch or 2 inch thick sizes. They cover the whole wheel. Scientifically, polycarbonate is supposed to be able to withstand temperatures of up to 267 celcius, so it would be interesting how it would stack up to the heat generated by heated up brake discs. A solid polycarbonate also doesn’t give the discs much airflow to cool down.

owh…just like put 'kuali' or 'pinggan' on your wheel and its done…hehe…no spoke will spoil the car overlook la…:-)
Obviously not for those with fake rear brake disc or fake brembo red brake caliper cover! he he he…
This will be a nightmare to keep clean…. Better invest in a hydraulic hoist and power wrench as well because you will need to take your wheels out to clean everyday! More during rainy season!
this is utterly rubbish. wonder what happen if the bling owner decide to wash his ride. take out all the wheels? but then, what to wash actually? the disk? hahahhahaha
polycarbonate is not scratch resistant. so u can guess what will happen after 2 weeks of using these rims…
polycarbonate is the exact same raw material used to manufacture optical disc plastics & covered transparent plastic roof. never heard of being used for rims. if i'm not mistaken, they are added with extra chemical to make it scratch resistant.
put some cloth in there, itd look like a high perforfance WASHING MACHINE,
yooo cooool,
gott find one for my vespa,
certainly is ugly.
the peeps in the hood would love it.
Hope it can contain the pieces of the brakes after it went kebaboom when it's too hot. LOL
Eeeuuuwww… *PUKE*
it will not work. You imagine sudden braking and the wheel cair…
Not very practical and nice, but I think it will look interesting on cars with smallerd disc brakes, or just hub brakes; the car should look as if it's floating!
Obviously an item for show, not for go. If you think this is insane, you must try to drive a car fitted with 21" wheels or above. Totally rubbish, but it looks out of this world.
this is a freakin jaw puller.. yea i reckon the price gonna be mad but when cheaper imitations comes in;) ill be the first to buy 4 sure
nicest…
Interesting concept. But aesthetically…not there. Practicality..as Paul mentioned, not much airflow to to cool down the brakes. So yeap…keep it for the show
